WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:10.950 Jupiter is 1300 times the volume of Earth, more than twice the mass of all the other planets combined, 00:10.970 --> 00:18.250 the fifth planet from the sun and the largest planet in our solar system. 00:18.270 --> 00:28.130 Because of its enormous size and powerful gravity, it is believed that Jupiter has influenced the formation and evolution of the other bodies that orbit our sun. 00:28.150 --> 00:39.760 Unlike Earth and the other smaller planets, the composition of Jupiter has remained unchanged since the solar system began. 00:39.780 --> 00:53.250 Like a time capsule, Jupiter can help us reconstruct nearly 5 billion years of history.
